The problem with banging the bigot drum so cavalierly is that: 1.) You dilute the term and disarm the term. 2.) You indulge your own close-mindedness and thus victimize yourself. 3.) You close down dialog. True racism is based on ignorance: children are not born racist. Therefore the only way to defeat it is to reveal the ridiculous logic behind it via dialog. If, instead, you resort to name calling with someone willingly to discuss it, you waste an opportunity to reform someone. If I were a racist, how does putting racist words in my note help? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion 8 - Build next generation apps today, with easy PDF and Ajax features - download now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:245647 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
